The World Pride Power List is compiled by Square Peg Media in conjunction with The Guardian. It was launched in 2012 on the occasion of London Pride being World Pride, to replace the previous Pride Power List, and included LGBT people from other countries as well as the UK.

2012

The World Pride Power List 2012 claims to list "the 100 most influential LGBT people of the year in the worlds of business, politics, arts and entertainment".[1] It was published in The Guardian on 7 July 2012 to coincide with the London World Pride London parade.

The judges were Ben Summerskill, Michael Fuller (managing director, UnitedHealth UK); Linda Riley (managing director of Square Peg Media), and Cuc Vu (chief diversity officer of the US LGBT organisation the Human Rights Campaign).

Of the 100 people listed, 62 are British (counting Sandi Toksvig as British), 34 American, and one each from Belgium, Iceland, Poland and Sweden. The number 1 slot was taken by Jane Lynch, an American actress.
